The story of women weaving nakshi kantha

I've seen it since I was little the women of the village spend most of their leisure time weaving nakshi kantha. The whole day is spent like this in their leisure time. Tip-top rain outside, accompanied by cold wind. The thing that comes to mind most before going to sleep in our village Bengal at this time is kantha. It may be a designer, or without design. The rainy season lasts for a long time in Bengal. The women of our rural society spend most of their time weaving various kantha kanthas under the bot tree in the heat of summer. The kantha is made depending on the simplest boil in the language of embroidery - running boil. Complex vocabulary is created in the kantha as a result of the diversified use of running sores.

In our region or in rural Bengal, folk culture and rural cottage industry occupy a large place, which is nakshi kantha. The word kantha has no special meaning, but I think it has come from Bengali culture. Some pieces ". I don't know if the oldest documents about kantha have been found. So kantha is a renaissance form of how many old pieces - pieces of cloth have been put together. The old tradition যার which roamed the Bengalis in the subcontinent এটি and is a daily habit of rural women, one of the oldest sewing methods in the world.

Born in rural Bengal, the kantha culture industry was on the verge of collapse in the early nineteenth century. After the independence of Bengal in 1971, a valuable demand for the kantha industry was fully accounted for through art. And this nakshi kantha has almost disappeared in Bengal. The kantha of ancient pottery is like the memory of the women of a village in Bengal. The story of the life of Nakshi kantha comes to the fore in the folk life of rural Bengal. The story of their survival comes up in Nakshi kanthai. However, rural women still weave nakshi kantha from noon to evening.

I remembered Jasim Uddin's "Nakshi Kantha Math" later.
"Someone saw it in the middle of the night after the field,
Kaba Nakshi is flying in the great vacuum holding the kantha
Play that bamboo flute in his hand to the tune
Ari dhegu lagie - Gao understands the deep pain. "
